[SOLVED] What CSS Selector to Style width of one single Post

New WordPress Fan · #1 Jul 10, 2013, 01:23 PM

I am having trouble finding the CSS selector to style just one particular post (not a page, but a post).

Based on this discussion thread : http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=14940, I have tried the following:

Code:

body.single-post div.post-447 {
width: 950px !important;
}

But this does not work. What am I doing wrong? Will appreciate any help!

Using Atahualpa 3.712 with Wordpress 3.5.2.

I'm sure that it is doing just what you want it to do. Try adding a border so you can see what it is doing.

Remember, the center area is based on the page width minus the size of the sidebars. Posts reside in the center area.

Thank you, Juggledad. Yes, you are right. The code was working; I realized this after I tried your suggestion and also tried out the site on a smaller (ipad) screen and saw the post page keep its width. Sorry!

Thanks again for all the great help you and Larry give in this Forum -- on so many topics. I made donations to each of you today, with gratitude. Thanks again.
